MADISON. Wis. Dec. 5.-William
jackson Armstrong, engaged in eX-
amining the divorce records of the state
under the auspices of the national
bureau of labor statistics, has just fin
ished his work in twenty-five Of the
principal counties of the state and re-
ports G.O00 divorces granted in such
counties since 1867. On the basis of the
work completed he estimates the num-
Der of divorces in the whole state since
that time to be $4,000. He has found
thai deSertiOn has been the cause for
which the most divorces have been
granted: neglect to provide second, and
cruelty next. Adultery has been the
cause in less than five eases out Of 100.
One curious fact is that the number of
wOmen.applying for divorce is twice that
of men. Mr.. Armstrong reports that
tue greater part of the divorce cases are
in the lower classes, those in the upper
class being cOmparatiVelV few.
